Report #58439

[frontier] Prompt injection attacks compromising agent goals via malicious user inputs

Implement 'adversarial sandboxing': route all external inputs through a dedicated sanitizer agent running in an isolated context \(no tool access, restricted memory\). This agent rewrites or validates inputs into a 'safe intermediate representation' \(structured JSON\) before the main agent processes them, containing potential injections in the sandbox.

Journey Context:
Static regex filters are bypassed easily. Input/output filtering LLMs inline adds latency and can still leak. Sandboxing creates a security boundary: the sanitizer can be tuned for paranoia \(high false positive rate\) without impacting main agent performance, while the main agent operates on trusted structured data, effectively air-gapping the attack surface.
